Europe In Nato: Deterrence, Defense, And Arms Control [Hardcover]

Based on the annual meeting of the Committee on Atlantic Studies, this important new work addresses the complexities of European defense. It offers perspectives from both sides of the Atlantic--Americans, Canadians, and Europeans--so that the reader can get a complete view of the differences in strategic thinking. Beyond this, it focuses on five major themes: the changes facing Western Europe & current strategies & arms control issues & public opinions on arms control & and European defense cooperation. With its timely contents and expert contributors, Europe in NATO will interest anyone involved with trans-Atlantic relations, comparative politics, U.S. foreign policy, policy-making, arms control, or Alliance strategies.CAROL EDLER BAUMANN is Professor of International Studies at the Univeristy of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and Chairperson, North American section, Committee on Atlantic Studies.
